BlockchainReader

scalus.cardano.node.BlockchainReader
trait BlockchainReader extends BlockchainReaderTF[Future]

Read-only provider for Cardano blockchain operations.

BlockchainReader provides read-only access to blockchain state without the ability to submit transactions. This is useful for:

  • Snapshot-based testing where state should not be modified
  • Transaction building that only needs to query UTxOs
  • APIs that should not have submit capability

Use BlockchainProvider when you also need to submit transactions.

Implementations capture their ExecutionContext at construction time, so callers don't need to provide it for each method call.

Value members

Abstract methods

Returns CardanoInfo for this reader.

Returns CardanoInfo for this reader.

This is always available synchronously after the reader is constructed. For emulators, this returns the current context. For remote providers like BlockfrostProvider, the CardanoInfo is fetched during async construction.

Attributes

def currentSlot: Future[SlotNo]

Returns the current slot number.

Returns the current slot number.

Attributes

def executionContext: ExecutionContext

Returns the ExecutionContext captured by this reader.

Returns the ExecutionContext captured by this reader.

This is used internally by default method implementations. External code can use this when working with Futures returned by reader methods, or provide their own.

Attributes

Fetches the latest protocol parameters from the network.

Fetches the latest protocol parameters from the network.

Attributes

def findUtxos(query: UtxoQuery): Future[Either[UtxoQueryError, Utxos]]

Find UTxOs using a type-safe query.

Find UTxOs using a type-safe query.

Value parameters

query

The query specifying source, filters, and pagination

Attributes

Returns

Either a UtxoQueryError or the matching UTxOs

Concrete methods

def findUtxo(input: TransactionInput): Future[Either[UtxoQueryError, Utxo]]

Find a single UTxO by its transaction input.

Find a single UTxO by its transaction input.

Value parameters

input

the transaction input to look up

Attributes

Returns

Either a UtxoQueryError or the found Utxo

def findUtxos(inputs: Set[TransactionInput]): Future[Either[UtxoQueryError, Utxos]]

Find UTxOs by a set of transaction inputs.

Find UTxOs by a set of transaction inputs.

Value parameters

inputs

the transaction inputs to look up

Attributes

Returns

Either a UtxoQueryError or the found UTxOs (fails if not all inputs are found)

def findUtxos(address: Address): Future[Either[UtxoQueryError, Utxos]]

Find all UTxOs at the given address.

Find all UTxOs at the given address.

Value parameters

address

the address to query

Attributes

Returns

Either a UtxoQueryError or the found UTxOs

inline def queryUtxos(inline f: Utxo => Boolean): UtxoQueryWithReader

Query UTxOs using lambda DSL.

Query UTxOs using lambda DSL.

This method translates a lambda expression to a UtxoQuery at compile time and returns a builder that can be further configured before execution.

Example:

// Simple query - execute immediately
reader.queryUtxos { u =>
 u.output.address == myAddress
}.execute()

// With pagination and minimum total
reader.queryUtxos { u =>
 u.output.address == myAddress && u.output.value.hasAsset(policyId, assetName)
}.minTotal(Coin.ada(100)).limit(10).execute()

Supported expressions:

  • u.output.address == addr - query by address
  • u.input.transactionId == txId - query by transaction
  • u.output.value.hasAsset(policyId, assetName) - query/filter by asset
  • u.output.value.coin >= amount - filter by minimum lovelace
  • u.output.hasDatumHash(hash) - filter by datum hash
  • && - AND combination
  • || - OR combination

Value parameters

f

Lambda expression from Utxo to Boolean

Attributes

Returns

A UtxoQueryWithReader builder that can be configured and executed
